Coniferous Trees That Shed Needles. Bald-cypress trees shed their needles in the winter. Most coniferous trees are evergreen, meaning all their needles don't drop during the first frosts of autumn and winter, unlike deciduous trees. Some shedding in evergreen trees is natural, as old needles are replaced every few years by new needles. Deciduous coniferous trees are rare. These include the dawn redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides), the European larch (Larix decidua), and the bald-cypress (Taxodium distichum).
